Do I dare
Disturb the universe?
In a minute there is time
For decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse.
—(45-48) The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock// T.S. Eliot

by Pablo Neruda
I have scarcely left you
When you go in me, crystalline,
Or trembling,
Or uneasy, wounded by me
Or overwhelmed with love, as
when your eyes
Close upon the gift of life
That without cease I give you.
My love,
We have found each other
Thirsty and we have
Drunk up all the water and the
Blood,
We found each other
Hungry
And we bit each other
As fire bites,
Leaving wounds in us.
But wait for me,
Keep for me your sweetness.
I will give you too
A rose.
Listen to the MUSTN’Ts, child.
Listen to the DON’Ts
Listen to the SHOULDN’Ts
The IMPOSSIBLE, the WON’Ts
Listen to the NEVER HAVEs
Then listen close to me—
Anything can happen, child,
ANYTHING can be.
—Shel Silverstein
I imagine that yes is the only living thing.
—e. e. cummings
Self-command is the main elegance.
—Ralph Waldo Emerson
